I am trying to capture image or record a video using camera and then upload to my server. On the server side, i used PHP language to read the file and moved it to a particular location.
This is the PHP script
<?php
// Path to move uploaded files
$target_path = "uploads/";
// array for final json respone
$response = array();
// getting server ip address
$server_ip = gethostbyname(gethostname());
// final file url that is being uploaded
$file_upload_url = 'http://' . $server_ip . '/' . 'AndroidFileUpload' . '/' . $target_path;
if (isset($_FILES['image']['name'])) {
$target_path = $target_path . basename($_FILES['image']['name']);
// reading other post parameters
$email = isset($_POST['email']) ? $_POST['email'] : '';
$website = isset($_POST['website']) ? $_POST['website'] : '';
$response['file_name'] = basename($_FILES['image']['name']);
$response['email'] = $email;
$response['website'] = $website;
try {
// Throws exception incase file is not being moved
if (!move_uploaded_file($_FILES['image']['tmp_name'], $target_path)) {
// make error flag true
$response['error'] = true;
$response['message'] = 'Could not move the file!';
}
// File successfully uploaded
$response['message'] = 'File uploaded successfully!';
$response['error'] = false;
$response['file_path'] = $file_upload_url . basename($_FILES['image']['name']);
} catch (Exception $e) {
// Exception occurred. Make error flag true
$response['error'] = true;
$response['message'] = $e->getMessage();
}
} else {
// File parameter is missing
$response['error'] = true;
$response['message'] = 'Not received any file!F';
}
// Echo final json response to client
echo json_encode($response);
?>and then i got PHP error like this
i do not have experience in PHP coding, i want to know what's wrong with this PHP.
The android client is complete run, it can take photo and video very well, even upload is completed, but i got nothing in my server client folder.
There are my android code:
